I've got another show at the hostel lined up. It was tentatively set to open next Friday, but I have pushed it back to give me some time to prepare. I think I have everything set out to show, but I am planning on running this by my crack team of advisors (ok, crack team of advisor) and making small adjustments. I recently completed a triptych what will sit at the center of the whole thing, which is as follows-



I had the vision of this thing in a flash of inspiration as I was falling asleep three days ago. I hazily groped for my sketchbook and a pencil, whereon I scrawled out reminders in my pictorial shorthand. On waking, I had no recollection of this until I chanced upon the book in a heap by my bed. I finished one a day in what has been my first flurry of activity in weeks. I'm pleased with the result. It follows sort of a creation/preservation/destruction narrative, but more actually it's just a series of awesome things involving elk. I love elk. I expect to see more of the lancer and his be-stechhelmed steed in the future.
Other things I've got in the works include a Nebuchadnezzar series of woodwose-king drawings, a picture of Minos from The Inferno by request, and the completion of a great many partially-painted things abandoned in my torpor. More information to follow as it reaches the news room.
In other news, I am still in limbo. My personal life has been a rollercoaster which I have been advised on all sides to get off of. But I won't. Or else I can't. I'm still unsure. We'll see what happens today. Everything could change in an evening. It's happened before.
